Catterick Garrison’s £21m town centre development has taken a major step forward with the demolition of buildings on the site now under way.
Preparatory work, including asbestos removal and the stripping out of internal fixtures such as wiring, is nearly complete. Demolition specialists are taking down the buildings where the internal work has concluded, to make way for construction on the new facilities to start early in the new year.
Once complete, the development will include a new community building, a multi-use events space and a new public square. Alongside this, the project will improve landscaping, pavements and cycle paths, as well as upgrading Coronation Park and improved play areas.
The new town centre buildings will benefit both service personnel and their families and the public. We are working with the Defence Infrastructure Organisation on the multi-million pound project. The Defence Infrastructure Organisation is funding the demolition and we have secured funding from the Government for the redevelopment.
